The Way That We Live

I feel really dreadful about my last post. I have to rethink and reorganize the purpose of this blog. No matter what drama is occurring in my life, I don't need to write about it on here. I wanted to use this blog as an escape from all of those issues. An escape from all of the ruckus and mayhem. But if I continue to focus my energy by getting in depth about all the meager drama, I'll only enhance it and make it more of an issue. My apologies. It's more to myself than to anyone else who's reading. I just have to learn how to contain that foolish side of me. The discerning side seems to be whittling away. Who I really am is even hiding from me now.

Alright, well I intend to redirect this blog, steering it in the opposite direction of my own personal drama. Not sure, just a more practical approach, I think, to restart with. First topic?

RAINBOWS & UNICORNS

Haha, kidding, kidding. I'm not too far off with rainbows, however...

Since I'm on break this week and I've been commanded to stay in the house and monitor the goings on of my mother's two other cubs, I've drifted back into the sweet fantasy world of "The L Word". I'm currently on Season 3 (had to skip over the 1st one because my cousin still hasn't given it back to me), where the Shane/Carmen relationship happens. One of my favorite scenes between them is when Shane has to wear a dress to meet Carmen's family at her little cousin's Quinceañera . I really did enjoy their relationship, but I've argued about this scene plenty of times before. In the vid below, around 0:51, Carmen says "quiero lamerte hasta que te vengas en mi boca mil veces", which means...haha, I won't type it, just watch. To me, it sounds okay, but to my spanish friends, they say she butchered it. Eh, I think she gets the point across. Give Sarah Shahi a break, she speaks English and Persian. You decide?

*Oh, if you have any issues with girls kissing girls or anything gay-esque, you probably shouldn't watch this vid...or read my blog, haha. Huge supporter of gay rights and equality; I'm damn proud of it.*

Gay or not gay, hispanic or not-so-hispanic, dress or no dress, this show is amazing. I've successfully proven this to my mother, my cousin, and a couple other friends. They love it, I love it, and if you don't? Well...that's great (wish you did...).


Anyone else want to see the light? I have all 6 seasons on DVD, give me a ring and I'll arrive promptly ;).

No mention of unicorns, sadly... It's okay, I'm just going to throw in a little splash of them right now.

Well that was rather gay of me....

In other news Jap gamers have a chance to become virtual rapists with the introduction of 'RapeLay'. The object of the game is quite simple, actually, rape. It's tedious trying to explain it further, so watch the vid below. (Found on CNN)

I'm displaced when it comes to my position on this. The budding feminist inside me, of course, opposes this fervidly. It's a blatant disrespect and violation of women. The fully grown gamer, however, is screaming FREEDOM (no, I don't suffer from DID). Hentai games have long been incorporating very brutal, violent depictions of sex into their products. Why is it now suddenly an outrage? This is no different from someone watching rape fantasy orientated porn. Yes, the gaming brings the reality of rape to new interactive heights, but I think it keeps those potential rapists at bay. It's providing them a more satisfactory fantasy. It's repulsive and deplorable, but these desires do exist. Not an excuse, it's fact.

Before you start to bombard me with "HOW?!", "WHY?!", and "WHAT?!", know that I'm neither here nor there on the matter. As nerdy as this is going to read...I'm going FDR and adopting a policy of neutrality.

Finally went to the doctor and SURPRISE! ...He referred me to an allergist, no duh. Turns out the lump in my neck is a swollen lymph node, thanks, Doc, for confirming my thoughts...Sucky sucky, yes.

Miscellaneous Stuff Time:

You should start watching the United States of Tara. It's simply genius. Toni Collette does an excellent job.

I just started listening to Evelyn Evelyn's new album and I must say it's enjoyable. Give it a listen when you get the chance. We can talk about it :).

Taking my little ones to see "How to Train Your Dragon" tomorrow.
